Education Marvels Poem by John Sensele

Education, you open a myriad doors
For suitors to enter, for suitors to explore opportunities
That you bestow on the edge of the universe whose floors
No longer limit heights suitors scale if suitors perform essential duties.

Education, you propel to the fore
The son of a marketer, the daughter of a hawker
Provided they choose to cruise past challenges they met before
You came along to realize their priceless dreams as a power broker.

Education, you redress the social balance
Dumping brats to the bottom of the economic pyramid
Raising vulnerable urchins and orphans to the apex of science
As though you were a druid, indeed.

Education, you smite scoffers
Whose cynicism pour scorn on your power
Claiming the educated roam city streets as loafers
Before they pluck their employment flower at God's appointed hour.
